The subsequent contingency revisit place is a Taman Tamadun Islam (TTI) or Islamic Civilization Park that gives we an discernment of Islamic enlightenment and tradition.

6. Cruise

Booking steer tickets, taxis, checking maps for directions, blindly guileless GPS: If we wish to equivocate all this, afterwards journey is only ideal for you.

Buy books or if they are too complicated to lift around, Amazon Kindle will be only as perfect.

Lemon Tree Restaurant(N1.49135 E103.76201) is located along Jalan Bedara, Tmn Melodies, Johor Bahru. The grill is situated in a residential area given 11 years ago, and many of their business are regular…
The owners – Mr Jeffery Bong pronounced he surveyed a area before starting his grill and like a trees in front of a emporium lot really much. And since of a trees stories, he named a grill as ‘Lemon Tree’, a renouned strain that was famous by Fools Garden, expelled on a year 1995 and became a vital general strike in 1996.

The environment of a grill is elementary and cozy, with retro ambience. The comfortable lighting done a guest feel comfort while dining in a restaurant…

The square of bread uniformly lonesome by tuna and simply wrapped with cheese, a cut of cucumber and baby tomato supposing additional snack to a appetizer, these Bruchetta were nice!

After a appetizers, any of us have a homemade fungus soup served by a restaurant.

The dainty fungus soup was nice, creamy, though not starchy, we can ambience a fungus started from a commencement compartment a end…the play of fungus soup was only good for a person.

The Mixed Fruits Salad was a following dish…kind of like a dishes arrangement by a owners – Jefferey Bong, since a poetic fruits salad was served after a vast volume of cheese installed into a stomach…:)

The fruits salad was prepared with a uninformed fruits, and don’t forget a special salsa by a Chef Jeffery, therefore it really cold us down for a ‘part 1’ dishes session…

After a brief break, a ‘part 2’ began with 2 spaghetti, seemed on a list quietly…The Spaghetti Hawaiian and Spaghetti Seafood Alio-Olio.

Both spaghetti were delicious! The Spaghetti Hawaiian was served with hams and with honeyed sauce, and a Spaghetti Seafood served with lots of seafood…especially a large prawns. We like a ambience of a both spaghetti.

Before a we could finish a spaghetti, a New Zealand Air Frown Rib-eye presented!

The beef served in a middle good doneness and a black peppers salsa was separated, that give a choice for those who like a strange beef ambience and those who like with a sauce.

The a bit burn grilled beef was succulent, it could be improved if offer in middle singular with a ambience of beef juice…but this is my personal welfare and it might not suitable for all of us, good arrange by a Chef! You will be warn by a reasonable cost of this steak, find out yourself! 🙂

The Chef did offer some of a internal delicacies on a following after carrying such a good western cuisine, that were a renouned Lemon Tree Special Fried Rice and a Mee Mamak.

As we recalled, a Lemon Tree restaurant held my courtesy few years ago from some of my friends comments on their good and elementary boiled rice, as a boiled rice lover…I was a bit late to try out though never bewail on it!
The boiled rice was incense and yummy, served on a ideal wet turn and never too dry to suffer it! The image of boiled rice served together with a boiled duck wing, ham, cheese, boiled egg and a sauce. It can be a stuffing plate for lunch or dinner.
According to a Chef…the multiple of boiled rice was a advise from a unchanging patron who revisit a grill 3 times a week, a patron requested to has some-more stuffs beside a boiled rice and Chef Jeffery ‘tailored made’ a plate as what he need, surprisingly a plate sell really good from a kitchen…that’s a reason Jeffery named it The Special Fried Rice of Lemon Tree Restaurant!

The Mee Mamak was an extended chronicle from a internal mee goreng where simply accessible in many of a mamak shop. But a Lemon Tree’s chronicle was somewhat different, it surfaced adult with many veggie and boiled to a ideal taste…which meant not too honeyed or salty. It was an eye opening for me to ambience a mee mamak in a western food restaurant.

After all a delicious dish for a dinner, a poetic desserts surfaced…
The special book of Tiramisu and a Chocolate Lava.
I’m not a dessert chairman though a desserts on that dusk ‘seduced’ me too much! Haha!

The Tiramisu was done in 3 forms of coffee and with a singular cheese cream. The Wow cause was on a initial bite! Not overly honeyed (as peoples are some-more health unwavering nowadays), and it was a warn for me!

The chocolate lava cake was done from a pristine 70% of dim chocolate, it won’t be overly sweet…no worries! And a so called ‘Lava’ will not ooze from a cake once we cut it due to a high firmness of a chocolate cake.

I trust a dual desserts above will simply expostulate a girls crazy! It will turn a favorite for a desserts lover!

We were confident for a dishes served by a grill that evening. Especially with a reasonable prices. The prices for a dishes above are within RM5.50 and RM49.00.

Lemon Tree Restaurant had stretched their dining area to a subsequent door. According to Jeffery, a new wing is support for private duty or catering services, 20-30 persons.

The Chef – Mr Jeffery Bong was a executive cook of one of a 5 stars hotel in Singapore, he motionless to came behind Johor Bahru to start his possess business 11 years ago. He wanted to offer his business with a peculiarity dishes and a reasonable price, in fact…it’s a good news for a western food partner in Johor Bahru. The grill had been by some-more than a decade, and Jeffery continue to yield a best cuisine to his business from day 1 compartment now…

Do dump by a Lemon Tree Restaurant if we are occur in Taman Melodies area, we trust we will find what we like!
